We Won't Move

Arlissa's song 'We Won't Move' is a powerful anthem of resistance and determination. The lyrics speak to the necessity of confronting and addressing societal issues rather than sweeping them under the rug. The opening lines, 'Sweep it all underneath the rug / Doesn't mean the dirt won't come up,' set the tone for the song's message: ignoring problems does not make them disappear. The song emphasizes that love is stronger than hate and calls for change or 'Amazing Grace,' a reference to the famous hymn that symbolizes redemption and hope.

The chorus, 'We won't move,' is a declaration of steadfastness and resilience. Arlissa sings about the importance of making their voices heard and not remaining silent in the face of injustice. The lyrics, 'Won't be quiet anymore / Not unless they hear us loud and clear,' highlight the urgency of the message. The song acknowledges the damage that has been done but insists on the need for change and action. The repeated phrase 'step by step / and brick by brick' suggests a methodical and persistent approach to building a better future.

The song also addresses the emotional toll of fighting for change, with lines like 'Let the sadness drown us out / They'll say our moment's not allowed.' Despite the challenges, the song remains hopeful and determined, with a focus on love and humanity as the driving forces for change. The lyrics, 'All the power in your grip / Can't hold us / And all the hate you give / Won't stop us,' reinforce the idea that no amount of oppression or hatred can deter their resolve. 'We Won't Move' is a rallying cry for those who seek justice and equality, encouraging listeners to stand firm and continue the fight for a better world.
